If you ever wondered what it’s like to live in Vietnam, this cycling vacation immerses you deep in its culture. At VBT, we’ve been biking in Vietnam for over 20 years—and we know where to find the hidden gems. Explore local markets in Cau Ngoi Thanh Toa and Hoi An, and learn to cook a traditional Vietnamese meal—discovering the rhythm of Vietnamese daily life. View the tomb of Emperor Khai Dinh in the Imperial City, and ride a colorful dragon boat on the Perfume River. As you cycle the lush green rice paddies and river valleys of Vietnam, our dedicated team of local VBT trip leaders and assistants will pamper you and keep your bike in tip-top condition—ensuring you have nothing to worry about but having the time of your life.

- Admire shifting landscapes of fish and duck farms, rice paddies, palm forests, mountains, and coastline on scenic cycling routes.
- Savor the local cuisine—including a hands-on class at a cooking school.
What to Expect
This tour offers easy terrain throughout the trip and is suitable for beginning cyclists and ideal for regular recreational cyclists. Roads are carefully selected but in general are not of the same standard as in Europe or the U.S. Road surfaces can be a mix of pavement and packed soil. Potholes are not uncommon, and defined lanes are not a given. A mix of vehicles, animals, and pop-up enterprises can be found along urban roadways.
